The property is surrounded by beautiful cypress trees, water oak, and palm trees. It is a peninsula, surrounded on three sides by water and unobstructed panoramic water views. There is a gate entrance to close for complete privacy and is well lit at the entrance. In 1889 the old 441 highway crossed over the property and on to a turn bridge that would take you over to Leesburg. The owner has newspaper clippings of pictures of the bridge when it crossed the Dead River. The home was remodeled, and additions done in 2006. This is now a 3 bedroom, two- and one-half bathroom home. There is over 900'of water frontage and has a protected pond. The seaplane was kept there.

The pond is a protected area where you can keep your sea plane. The property is large enough and has room to keep all your toys, and boat trailer. The garage is big enough to keep an RV and a car.

The pool is out by the porch to cool off in those hot summer days. Also, it is heated by solar panels for those early spring days and late fall times. Two artists have owned this home for 18 years. The swing chairs on the porch were hand made by the owner and all the custom wood birds that you see in the home. The stained glass was made by his wife. The home has plenty of light to make your days enjoyable. This room is open to the kitchen. The large center island is granite and is 8 x 6' 6". There is a gas stove and prep sink built into this. There is plenty of bult in cabinetry and enough cabinet space for your dishes. There is a lanai off the kitchen where you can enjoy dinner while watching the boaters fishing.
